Iran's Goalkeeper Alireza Beiranvand, who suffered a head injury following a nasty collision with his teammate Majid Hosseini in the ninth-minute of their World Cup opener against England, is expected to be in the starting line-up for Friday's game against Wales.

If is only broken nose he must play with protector.
if is head concussion than we don't want what happened to Tua Miami dolphins qb
Happen to him, and must seat out.

We shall see still
less than 50 hours to the match

The fact is Iran plays scared and nervous against the big teams especially european team. They have an inferior complex.
I love the moroccan team of 2018 played. Completely fearless and precise. They didnt care who they were playing, they just played their game.

Like Saudi and Tunisia yesterday, exactly what you're saying. Iranian players are just psychological sooo weak and low when it comes to this stage.

[Abtin]

So is Beiro back or not for Friday, whats the final verdict?

[The]

My ideal lineup would be:

---------------Hosseini-----------
Sadegh---Kanaani---Shoja----Milmo
----------------Hosseini------------------
-------Nour---------------Hajsafi---------
Saman-----------------------------Amiri
----------------Mehdi---------------------


- Sardar is not a 90 minute player yet
- JB kheyli bad rid
- Ezza is a massive defensive liability
- Would go with Abedzadeh if Wales weren't so strong in the air

[Mahsaa]

After this WC its time for many players to quit TM, when was the last time we have seen a player playing well 3-4 games in a row ? Look at JB for example, i dont even want to talk about Cheshmi,Hosseini,Mohammadi,Hajsafi and the rest.

[Pluto2000]

I would like to see 4-1-4-1:

Abedzadeh

Moharrami - Kanaani - Shoja - Jalali

Ezatolahi

Gholizadeh - Ghoddos - Vahid Amir - Taremi

Ansarifard / Azmoun second half



A few key points:
1. Jalali over Haj Safi and Milmo. Why? Both are awful, just awful. They are a liability on the pitch when we have much better alternatives. Jalali performed solidly against Senegal, why not give him a shot.
2. Gholi for JB. JB can't play anymore I'm sorry. He should retire after this world cup, his career is done. He has moments of brilliance, but they are too far and few, and he has been extremely inconsistent. We need someone who can hold the ball, has technical skills, and is a dribbler. JB is also a defensive liability and is in his own head.
3. I put Ansarifard first half and Azmoun second half because rotating front strikers to keep them fresh will keep the constant threat of Taremi playing deep + one attacker up front against Wales, giving them immense pressure.

I feel like we this lineup has decent defense in back 4 + eza, and we can focus the rest on technical players and aggression. We need to play more aggressively this game, similar to Senegal and Uruguay. CQ needs to trust his players to attack more, and I hope we can see that tomorrow.

If I see Cheshmi, Milmo, or PAG again in starting lineup I don't think I will watch tbh, there are starters ahead of them and CQs last run with TM will be considered a failure.
